Greetings 420 enthusiasts. Here an update on several plants grown outdoors, away from the greenhouse.
Shiva Skunk was harvested yesterday and is now hanging to dry.
Durban-Thai HighFlyer x C99. DTHF#1, now harvested and drying, has a sister from the same pack of seeds still in flower. This sister, DTHF#2, is obviously a different pheno than #1. #1 is more of a Durban-Thai pheno, with darker, larger leaves and taller stature (see post #110 above). In comparison, #2 is probably more of a "C99 pheno" since she has smaller sativa leaves, a lighter fan-leaf color, shorter stature, slimmer buds, and now is putting on frosty trichomes in a way that #1 did not. At first glance I wondered if the white stuff was mildew, and under the microscope, it's hard to tell whether those frosty trikes are just clear and somehow the mildew is growing on the sugar leaves. Does anyone know what this could be?
"NL#5 Malawi Haze" seed crop. In other news, "Hazey" -- the NL#5 x Haze that was pollinated by the surprise male Super Malawi Haze (Nevil's Haze x Malawi) that was left alone with my otherwise "all female" grow back in mid-September and as mentioned dumped gobs of his pollen all over Hazey -- is now showing quite a crop of seeds that seem to be ripening. Those seeds would be "NL#5 Malawi Haze" a new strain bred by accident! No complaints, however. The calyxes are beginning to split open. I was hoping to harvest some bud off Hazey, but she is so full of seeds I hesitate to harvest the bud until the seeds are ripe. Maybe the massive seed crop will diminish bud quality and if that is so, no worries. There is thankfully the bud from her sister, NL#5 x Haze #1, who is sinsemilla and is ripening beautifully in the greenhouse.
